Hi XMCA'ers:

I am teaching a grad research seminar
(http://www.educ.ubc.ca/faculty/bryson/571syll.html), and discovered, Monday
night that 90% of the students are in the Sp Ed field.
I would like to add a few readings to my syllabus, and most especially Hugh
Mehan's work on how students are "diagnosed" in team meetings, and
McDermott's "Acquisition of a child by a learning disability".

Does anyone know of a url to link to online versions of either of these
papers?

Any recommendations of other, similarly socio-cultural research studies on
Sp Ed populations?

Mary

To alter efficacy-based futility requires development of competencies and
expectations of personal effectiveness. By contrast, to change
outcome-based futility necessitates changes in prevailing environmental
contingencies that restore the instrumental value of the competencies
people already possess.          Bandura-- 1977
